Un instrument de verre contenant un alcool coloré ou du mercure servant à la mesure de la chaleur radiante, différent du thermomètre médical ou domestique du fait que la partie bulbeuse est entourée d'une sphère de métal à parois creuses et minces peintes en noir pour absorber l'énergie radiante. La lecture indiquera une combinaison de la chaleur ambiante et de la chaleur radiante, indication plus réaliste de ce que ressent un être humain qu'une simple lecture de la température de l'air. 1, record 12, French, - thermom%C3%A8tre%20sph%C3%A9rique%20dit%20r%C3%A9sultant

An unusual car, invented by Renault, the first to be designed with virtual reality CAD. It has four-wheel drive and rises above rocky surfaces. It lowers and rises its nose when going up and down hills. When it comes to a river, it turns amphibious : two hydrojets power it along by blasting water under its body. There is room for two passengers and a driver, who sit inside a glass bubble operating electronic, aircraft-type controls. It doesn’t have windscreen wipers-water molecules are disintegrated on the screen's surface by ultrasonic sensors. 1, record 14, English, - Racoon

A number of interesting wall effects can be produced with the concept of non-parallel walls. Figure 3. 2 shows a view of a pleated wall. Although normally constructed vertically, they can also be constructed horizontally and can include some room equipment such as telephones, slide projectors and the like. The spaces behind the pleats are filled with loose fiber glass insulation to absorb any transmitted sound and to damp out panel resonances. A pleated wall also ensures good sound dispersion. 1, record 17, English, - pleated%20wall
